Find My Device is a utility for Android that offers you to locate a lost or stolen mobile device. Additionally this official Google application offers you to remotely lock your smartphone to avoid any personal data leakage.
Location
This mobile software can help you determine the current location of your tablets, smartwatches, and smartphones. If your device is offline, you can still see its last known location when it was connected to the internet.
In addition to standard Google maps, this utility builds layouts to help you locate the smartphone within large premises, such as airports and shopping malls. There is an option to plot a route to the device to simplify the search.
Locking
If users suspect their gadget has been stolen, they may activate the emergency remote lock. This function can both restrict access to the smartphone and delete all data on the device.
